Lesson Overview

Every session starts before the client walks in. The AURUM ONE must be powered up in the correct sequence, the right client profile loaded, and the machine physically adjusted to that client's start and end positions before the workout begins. This lesson covers the full startup and setup workflow — from powering on the hardware to pressing Ready — so you can run sessions confidently and consistently.

Learning Objectives

  • Execute the correct 3-step boot sequence (machine → MAC → WACOM)
  • Log in to the AURUM Training App and load a client profile
  • Set horizontal start and end positions for a new client on each exercise
  • Use the Adjust process to refine positioning mid-session
  • Distinguish between Ready (coach review) and Start (client begins)
  • Identify and resolve the most common startup issues

Boot Sequence

The machine, the MAC, and the WACOM tablet must be powered on in the right order. Starting the app before the machine is ready causes connection errors that require a full restart.

1
Machine
Power on the AURUM ONE. Wait for the machine to complete its hardware initialisation before touching anything else.
2
MAC
Power on the MAC. Log in with the profile Aurum Training. Open the AURUM Training App — it will connect automatically to the machine.
3
WACOM
Power on the WACOM remote tablet. This is the client-facing interface and will sync with the app once the session is started.

Loading a Client Profile

Inside the Training App, select the coach name, then find the client. Returning clients have all their previous session data stored — select their name and the app will pre-load their positions and settings.

Returning Client
Select their profile. All previous positions and resistance levels are stored. Review the last session summary, then proceed to Ready.
New Client
Create a new profile. You will need to set horizontal start and end positions for each exercise during the first session — this takes longer and requires more active coaching.

Setting Start & End Positions

For each exercise, you define where the movement begins and ends. The horizontal start position is the extended position (e.g. legs straight on leg press). The horizontal end position is the compressed/shortened position. These define the client's safe range of motion — the machine will not move beyond these limits.

The Adjust Process

Use Adjust when a client's position needs to change mid-session — for example if a joint is being loaded outside its safe range, or the client reports discomfort. Adjust lets you change the start or end position without ending the session. Smaller ranges are always safer. For new clients or special populations, start conservative and expand over sessions.

Ready vs. Start

These are two distinct states in the app — confusion between them is a common early coaching error.

Ready
The coach's confirmation step. The machine is set up, positions are confirmed, the client is seated correctly. Press Ready to lock in the configuration and move to the start screen.
Start
The client begins the exercise. The machine becomes active and reactive. Do not press Start until the client is properly seated, gripping correctly, and has received their coaching cue.
